YouTube Comment Snob - Before and After

YouTube Comment Snob - Before and After by waxpancake.
Firefox extension hides YouTube comments with incorrect spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. The results made me laugh.

I will use correct punctuation, spelling and capitalisation, otherwise I will be punished. ;)

Awesome. YouTube commenters are hands down the most asinine group of people I've come across on the Web.

Great tool. Have you originally developed it as a UserScript? If so, can you share that too?

@Adam Then you haven’t seen 4chan. ;)

bit elitist, but a funny proof of concept

also filters out all the funny comments and leaves a couple of boring ones : /

It doesn't need to work on flickr. In my time here I've seen nary an ugly comment. Its just a different class of user.

Perhaps version 2 can use StupidFilter. (See also SpamBayes for YouTube.)

@riddle: Indeed, I haven't. And if it's worse than YouTube, not sure I want to!

@regrowth It has an optional profanity filter, too. (Turned off by default.)

FeynTube is even more ruthless, replacing *all* comments with Richard Feynman quotes.

But can you invert it, so you don't have to suffer through any grammatical, well spelled, or thoughtful comments? Then all you'd see "is hella jokes."

I think my favorite part is that I recognize the clip the screenshotted [?] comments are for, just by reading them.

This removes literally the best thing about youtube.

And I don't think I'd ever want to read youtube if the only comments I could see were ones by people smarmy enough to go post well-thought out comments with proper capitalization and punctuation.
